This episode of Thinking Slidesways is not brought to you by the disappearance of my neighbors.

Instead, it's brought to you by somebody who might be able to find my neighbors,

or maybe not, or is responsible for their disappearance? Gosh, I hope not. Anyway, it's a pet from your

local shelter. It could be a dog, it could be a cat, it could be a horse, it could be a parakeet.

Who knows what kind of thing you could find there, but that thing I know you will find there is love.

So you can adopt from a shelter, or you can volunteer your time, or you can donate money because

they always need more money to take care of all the pets that are looking for their wonderful forever homes.

So donate, spend time, adopt, find my neighbors.

Hi there. Welcome to another episode of Thinking Slidesways. I'm your host, Joe.

Join as always by Steve and... Devon! Yeah, and of course, another mystery.

Yep. Another week, another mystery. All right, so this week we've got a really intriguing

story for you guys. I know it sounds like he's sarcastic, but it's true. This is actually an

interesting story. It actually is kind of an interesting story. I'm actually glad that you've

covered this one, Joe, because I have read up on this multiple times and been so baffled.

I wasn't ready to dig into it, so I'm glad you picked it up. Yeah, I'll thank you. Yeah,

and I finally, and I got into it, and I was convinced of kind of leaning towards one thing,

and I started leaning towards another thing, you know, but by the time I was done looking at it,

you know, it's kind of interesting what happens. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, and a quick warning,

yeah, this story does depict some torture and unpleasant things like that. So again,

if you have little ears, see a doctor, if you've got a kid around, then you might want to,

like, turn it off until the kid's not here anymore. But, so you probably want to know what the

mystery is. We've been teasing, teasing, teasing. And that'll come up right after this break.
